BEASTCOAST VS EVIL GENIUSES

Starting very soon in the second lower brackets of the DOTA 2 INTERNATIONAL 2022 championships. Two of the greatest teams face off to decide who moves up towards the upper brackets!

EVIL GENIUSES:

Ranking 8th, EG is the favorites for this match as they ARE a very powerful team. Winning a total of 7 TIMES against 7 different teams while only losing against BOOM and Liquid but still, remained first of the GROUP A playoff leaderboards!

They later qualified for the upper brackets but somehow unexpectedly lose againse Thunder Awaken 0-2... very unlucky match. 

Form is good their last match was just unfortunate but that doesn't diminish their reputation as being one of the best teams in this tournament.

 

BEASTCOAST:

Ranking 15th, this squad is more experienced than EG as a team having more than 3 years of playtime together. In this tournament, they placed 7th on Group B playoffs, placed in the lower brackets and defeated Hokori.

 

My prediction:

EVIL GENIUSES is more likely to win. They have better form, lineups and H2H matches is more in their favor, their last 3 matches however resulted in a draw.

EG to win.

Juventus vs Empoli 

The match between this two team will be held on Saturday. This match will be held on Juventus stadium and their will be tough change for visitor to win this match. Juventus is playing great football in this season although their champion league journey hadn't in great but they have great potential to win this match as they play as their home support. I think Juventus have some great player but due to some tactical difficulty they have not played their best in champion league also Seria A. But In Saturday's match they will back with strong tactics and great energy. On the other hand Empoli asso play good games in this season and stood at number 10 in the point table. BUT my prediction is they will lost in this match due to away match and different condition.

So my prediction for this match is both the teams to score(No)

odd 1.80

Responsible approach of Porto to the current rally of Primeira Liga allowed them to win 7 wins with 1 losses and 1 draws, therefore the fact that after 9 matches they are now among the leaders of the championship, few can really surprise. Their high position is also explained by the statistics of goals: 2.4 and 0.7, that is how much they score and concede on average per game. In home (away) matches they are most dangerous from the 76-90 minute, during this period they scored 5 goals, but in the same second from the 31-45 minute of the game, there are obvious problems in the defense of their goal, because they conceded 8 goals. Obviously, having such statistics it is worth expecting a beautiful and entertaining game from the team.

Benfica occupies the 1 line in the table with the 25 scored points after the 9. Good performance - 2.6 goals per match and reliable defense - 0.6 goals per match allowed to win 8 times, 1 ended in a draw and lost 0 matches. Plus, their attack is especially dangerous from 76-90 minute of the match. During this segment they have scored 3 goals. The club has more than enough reasons for optimism before the upcoming match. 

 My bet: Less than 9.5 corners with 2.030 odds

1. Philadelphia began the semi-final series with away games, where they met with San Diego. In the first match, the team showed an excellent game and did not allow the opponent to earn a single wound, having won a clean sheet (2:0).
2. San Diego continues to perform well in the playoffs and went 3-1 against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the first round without much trouble. Then the team met with the Philadelphia Phillies and again failed to start with a victory, losing with a dry score (0:2).
3. As in the quarterfinals, the Padres were able to comeback themselves after the first defeat in the series, winning a landslide victory (8:5). Now the club will have to play on the road, where it will be much more difficult to cope with the opponent.
Bet: Philadelphia win
Odds: 2.07

=> Total Under 22.5 games 1.76 odd

Stephens has shown amazing tennis this week, winning all three of her matches in straight sets. She went head-to-head with Garcia in the third round and used her forehand to great effect to dictate the game. Pegula proved too strong for Andreescu in the previous round. Its sequence is difficult to break, it strictly follows the chosen tactics. Jessica has won her previous matches against Stevens with ease, but this week the former US Open champion seems to be on the rise. Sloane enjoys playing in Guadalajara and seems to enjoy the conditions here. This meeting may turn out to be more competitive than their previous head-to-head matches, but Pegula has been consistent throughout the year and is likely to beat her oppo. I think pegula finish the match within 2 sets so going under.

MLB 

Philly VS San Diego

Observation- This series is tied up at 1-1, and the winner of best of 5 advances to the world series. Today is a pitching day as both teams put up a pitcher with ERA's less than 3 runs per game.  Joe Musgrove for San Diego has a 1.39 ERA in the postseason and Ranger Suárez for Philly has a 2.7 ERA in the postseason. The first matchup the score was 2-0 with good pitchers in and the second game was 8-4 with the pitchers not so good. So today with good pitching and a win needed for both teams i feel the under is a lock but every option i pick seem to go the oppisite this month lol so probable a 10 - 8 game lol 

Prediction is under 6.5 for 2.45 odds (pinnacle)

Maria Sakkari, apparently, finally came to her senses, defeated Kostyuk, if not counting, is such a rival, but with a strong Collins figured it out for me unexpectedly. In women's tennis, of course, stability is not to be expected, but as far as I remember Kudermetov, she is not a very good player ..Yes, she is ace, but there are also a lot of doubles and the most stupid decisions in the form of throwing into outs from under the net, etc. Not easy, but I see Sakkari winning here, she should finally start defending her rating. But both will play their best so picking over.
My betting pick will be over 21.5 games for 1.854 odds.
